solr vs xapian: which one gives you the most meaningful results?

问题

I am currently using whoosh to dev a website, and I'll need to choose something more powerful once the website will be in production.

If anyone of you used both of these engines, which one gave you the most meaningful results one the long road?

回答1:

Solr is the best option. Its well documented and the community is huge. Almost a year ago I benchmarked Xapian vs Solr:

My dataset had +8000 emails:

Solr

• index time: 3s
• index size: 5.2mb

Xapian

• index time: 30s
• index size: 154mb

Another great reading about benchmarks between Xapian and Solr is this document: Cross-instance Search System - Search Engine Comparison
